For a couple of months I've been wishing for a slight change at my job. Yesterday, I wondered, "What if I just asked?", and did, and a "Sure." was the answer. Who knew it could be that easy?
Gosh, I fall in love with Jude's invisible basting dots, every time.
No "what if's" about this empty space just yet, still enjoying the looking . . . it's such a rare phenomenon in our house.
I love my broom. I found it in Canada. Two sisters make them by hand. It almost makes me want to clean. Some cleaning up, a little clearing out, trying to make some more space. For what? Who knows?!
Surprised at seeing some empty space in my half of the living room (my "studio"), K asked, "What are you going to do with it?!"
"I don't know. Stare at it."
And I don't know what to tell you about this cloth I began with the new year. It just is. I'm staring at it some, too.
The year is off to a blurry start. I have been thinking about the idea of having a word to focus on for the new year. Found myself pondering . . . "What if it were...?" Or, "What if it was... "? Or, "What if I...?" Realizing the only constant was the "What if...?". Which is probably the best question I could ask myself most of the time. Remembering my painting a couple of months ago . . .
"What if things were different than she thought?"
So, I think my goal for this year is, when in doubt- of myself or the situation, assume things might be different than I think or fear, and try to move forward.
What if I could really do this? Wouldn't that be a wonderful something?
